Field whatsit

[djabend]

I went hunting in a hayfield next to where I live. They just mowed it . Did not find much but some shotshell bit o lead a fork and a whatsit

The back has a hinge



Beats not finding anything at all and I am going to keep hitting it. It is right nextdoor and there is a cellar hole on it. Must be some coins somewhere. HH,

Ed, you mean parasol? Camisole is a undergarment. Yep I see the lady with the parasol & some palm trees. I say it was a locket cover.

Hey check out the shells, some of them older ones are worth a few $$ on ebay.

Hey MasterEagle,

People actually pay $$$ for the old shotgun caps? Is there a list of types, etc anywhere?

Hmmm...I have a few, just dumped in coffee can.

I found one not too long ago that is worth about $1.50 in its current condition and if I knew how to clean it up would be worth $5.oo on ebay. Sounds crazy but it is true.
